This past Sunday, the Cross Cultural Internship Program (CCIP, www.theccip.com), an EVP J-1 intern program sponsored by FUSIA, welcomed its second group of exchange visitors with a post-arrival orientation. The new arrivals are among 74 total participants in the program this year who will intern at various companies and organizations throughout New York City while also experiencing the cultural and artistic diversity that the city has to offer.
The orientation was hosted by the program director, Elizabeth Kay, with the assistance of two student leaders. The evening orientation was a light and relaxed way to prepare the new arrivals for the weeks ahead of them and briefly reiterate important information they will need to succeed. The exchange visitors were excited to get to know one another better and eager to ask questions about their weeks in New York. The student leaders also came together to discuss the upcoming group activities.
After the orientation, Elizabeth Kay took the group leaders out to dinner to recognize their support. At the dinner, the group leaders shared what they've learned so far, and discussed what they hoped to contribute to the program and what they hoped to gain. The dinner was a happy atmosphere that set the tone for an exciting summer ahead.
